Nils Frahm Shares New Album Empty: Listen

Music, News

Nils Frahm has released an eight-track album called Empty for Piano Day 2020. Listen to it below via Erased Tapes.

Empty was conceived before Frahm broke his thumb a few years back (the injury resulted in his 2012 record Screws). The new album is comprised of eight solo piano pieces, originally recorded for a short film Frahm shot with director and friend Benoit Toulemonde.

“When I came back from the hospital with a broken thumb and listened to the recordings,” Frahm said in a press release, “I felt they were unfinished. I decided to put them aside and started to work on my small album, Screws.” He added:

Many many other notes of the piano have been struck since these days, and before we all forget about this, I thought it would be a good moment to share these lullabies with you. I hope they help you stay all strong and calm in these days of solitude – despite the hardship, we can discover introspection and reflection unexpectedly. Who knows what it is good for.

Much love,

Nils
